Function nix::poll::ppoll [−][src]
Expand description
ppoll()
allows an application to safely wait until either a file
descriptor becomes ready or until a signal is caught.
(poll(2)
)
ppoll
behaves like poll
, but let you specify what signals may interrupt it
with the sigmask
argument. If you want ppoll
to block indefinitely,
specify None
as timeout
(it is like timeout = -1
for poll
).
